Abstract
The protected and individualized fibers of the optical fiber ribbon are encapsulated in a common outside covering. The protected fibers carry distinctive sets of ink marks on their outside surfaces in order to individualize them, and they are individually covered with respective films of transparent polymerizable resin containing an anti-adhesive agent, with the common covering being received on the films. The ribbon is suitable for optical fiber cables.
